Because COVID-19 is a terrible pandemic, but not a plague. The most dangerous part of associating COVID-19 with the ten plagues is not about the malady’s origin, but about our response. When the Israelites sequestered in their homes and painted blood on their doorposts, they did it to distinguish themselves from the Egyptian households. When we stay home, it is instead a recognition that there are no distinctions to this disease; whatever we do is not primarily for ourselves, but for our neighbors and coworkers and others we do not know. Our houses have no blood on the doorpost, neither for protection nor identification. We await not a personal salvation, but an all-clear for everyone. Unlike that midnight in Egypt — we, all of us, are in this together.<br />\n—Adapted from Passover and the Pandemic by Michael Bernstein</p>", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": null, "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "-- Ten Plagues", "slug": "ten-plagues" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 167, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Ten Plagues COVID-19 | Passover haggadah by Joshua Gilstein", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

An ally is open to learning new things and challenging their own assumptions.</p>\n\n<p><strong>2. The ally who stands up for a friend:</strong> The lives of people we care about, our friends, family, and colleagues can be powerful catalysts for action.</p>\n\n<p><strong>3. The ally who speaks up about equality:</strong> When we speak out against injustice because it’s the right thing to do, regardless if someone we know and care about is affected, we act on behalf our core values.</p>\n\n<p><strong>4. The ally who comes out as an advocate to move equality forward:</strong> As allies, we are often insulated from the vulnerabilities that LGBTQ people face in the world.
